If someone came up to me and told me I have good character, I would ask what book I am from. Just kidding. I would immediately think that they are talking about my personality, which includes being a supporting, honest, and trustworthy person. My personality is what makes me who I am, what makes me different, and I quiet proud of that.
I don't like for others around me to be unhappy. I always strive to be a supportive person and to understand everyone sides. I will stand with others, when I believe they are right, and through any hardships they are facing I won't stop being a good friend. I never judge, because I wouldn't want anyone to judge me, based on their first impression of me. I do best to make sure that people around me, feel like they have a friend, that they can talk to me anytime they feel like it. I don't like to pressure people, because I believe everyone has their own issues, and when they are ready, they will confide in me. I have a very big and understanding heart, so I just want to be there for people, when they need it most, because I feel like there is no greater feeling than that.

I believe that you don't have to lie to be nice. Sure at times honesty hurts, but honesty is the best policy. I feel like sugar coating everything will not help anyone and will make everything much worse than it is, so I make sure to be as honest as I can. I understand how it feels like to be lied to, so I want to be as honest as I possibly can. I believe words are more painful than actions. Getting hurt physically can be mended most of the time, but getting hurt emotionally can sometimes never be healed. That is why I try to be honest, so that not only I, but other people don't get
I do not believe that anyone should get their feelings hurt when just saying an innocent white lie could save them so much drama. Also protective lies are very important to me. If someone is dealing with a lot of stress or a deathly illness, there is no need to put more on them. However, when it comes to peace keeping lies, I believe that they should not be used. These lies are very hard not to use, and I find myself using them despite my hardest efforts. Trust-keeping lies are one of the worst lies because I feel forced to choose between my personal morals and a friendship. Although I try not to lie at all, I find that social lies and protective lies are the most acceptable. I find that peace-keeping lies and trust-keeping lies are unacceptable yet I still understand that sometimes they are
An abundant amount of people would say they try to contain honesty, however, we are all liars, no matter how hard we try. Because of the pressure from society, we all are forced to make ourselves look and feel satisfactory with the rest of society. This is not just considering students in a school setting, but also parents and those at home. My cousin
Character is often the setting stone on what a person is judged upon. For someone to have character, they must noticeably stand out, and do extraordinary tasks that a normal student would not usually do. From school activities to sports clubs, I myself carry unique characteristics that set me apart from other students.
There are countless people who aspire to help people in their lives. However, if you think about it, nearly every career helps others in some way, shape, or form. Teachers, scientists, policemen and various other careers aid people in different ways. I, like many others, have always known that I’ve wanted to help people. Yet, I also want to do more than that. I want to help others, but also save others- emotionally or physically, mentor others, inspire others, and be there for others during their most vulnerable times. This is who I am- and I have always been this person. In first grade, I ran a lemonade stand at my school for the Make-A-Wish Foundation; I got my third grade class to raise money for starving children; and I put up with bullying throughout middle school because I befriended a girl who had trouble making friends on her own. The quality of pure selflessness and care for others that I have always possessed would allow me to do something great with my life- it just took me some time to figure out what.
...g a person know that you are stronger than the hurt they caused is fantastic. Martin Luther King Jr. once said “I have decided to stick to love… hate is too great a burden to bear.”
Thus my passion for helping others stems from a tender age of five. From that age, I always exercised helping people by sharing my snack to those in need. That need grew rapid throughout my days of Primary and Secondary school where I haven’t only shared my snack, but I also bought snacks for those in need, assisted disable kids to write, open their snack or to use the washroom facility. My nickname then was Mother Theresa. I also became a peer counselor in high school to assist those that were hurting, abused or neglected. Not only to provide them with a listening ear, but to encourage and motivate them. To help them realize that their current situation is not their final destination and they are the ones that can control what lies ahead of them. Putting a smile on other people’s faces brought me tremendous joy. As a result, I still have that dying need to assist others out there. To show them that there is still hope in humanity, still, hope for a vigorous life and to help them reach their maximum potential in
One of my strongest qualities is having empathy for others. People open up to me very easily, including those who don’t let others get emotionally close to them. My passion to help others has evolved to become an integral part of the educated, diversified and motivated woman that I am today. I have always thought my purpose in life is to uplift and take care of others. I thrive on the opportunity to solve complicated
I have always seen myself as an individual who always puts the needs of others before my own. Ever since I was a young girl I wanted to help other
This type of lie is probably the nicest type of lie, in my opinion. This lie is told to achieve some good by telling a lie that will enhance or help the person that is being lied to or lied about. An example of this could be when you “like” someone’s picture or status on Facebook even if you don’t really like it. Some people just click “like” to make the person feel comfortable about posting it or
I am compelled to help others in need. Mentally, I know it is not feasible to help everyone, but that does not stop me from trying. In addition, when my clients are in pain, I am also hurt because I have emotionally committed myself to each one of them. I must learn to establish borders to emotionally separate myself from my clients and their problems. I can be compassionate and empathize, but when my workday ends, it ends, and my personal life begins.
I do not know of anyone who wants to be known as Pinocchio, the wooden boy who lies and in a result, makes his nose grow bigger. As an old proverb says, honesty is the best policy. I agree with being honest at all times. First, telling the truth to me, is always the right thing. When I catch someone in a lie, I just think to myself, what has come up of this world? A person’s truths and lies prove who that person is, and what that person is capable of. Second, people can earn a great deal of respect and trust from telling the truth. Now, people trust their “gut feeling”, but someone’s “gut feeling” should always be truthful. Respect is something that is earned, and at sometimes, given to people who do the things that they are supposed to do for themselves and for others. Last, most people were taught to tell the truth at a very young age. A truth is
I once believed that lying was the only way out of hurting another person but after lying on many occasions not to get caught got me nowhere. I would lie on numerous times to my boyfriend that when the relationship got serious and committed he couldn’t help but throw my past lies in my face, especially during an argument. So after 2 years I have learned to always be honest regardless of the outcome. And so far it has worked to my favor.
I would like to help people and share my passion with them. I truly believe that if people Another very important value in my life is my family. My family brings joy to my life; they are what make me strive to be a better person. They encourage me to reach for my dreams no matter how crazy they are. My family is very close to one another, we have our arguments but we will never stop being such a close family,
Growing up, we are always told to never lie because it is the worst thing you could ever do. “Lying will only lead to a horrible situation with less than mediocre results. While lying is not always good, it is not always bad either. Samuel Butler once said “Lying has a kind of respect and reverence with it. We pay a person the compliment of acknowledging his superiority whenever we lie to him.
I encourage people to help everyone they can in their life, and I certainly hope that people truly enjoy helping others through life. I try to get people to be the way I am, through my actions. I don’t judge people fast, and I try my best to assume that people in general are good and are not up to no good.
